      Same problem here with a simple setup and the snapshot from July 17, the browser ftp test to dd-wrt fails. While pfSense 2.0.3 works.
      Hopefully these ftp helper changes get reverted to what worked in 2.0.3

      I do not have multi WAN so I am not affected by the problems that the old code had, hopefully for those who do there exists a good workaround.

      Maybe a new ftp helper could be tested and developed on a different version then pfSense stable and release candidate as it seems to be quite complicated as the 2.1.0 release candidates have a broken ftp helper for over 2 months.

        Devs, could someone make a testing "out-of-band" 2.1 snapshots with the recent (2+ months) FTP "fixes" removed? I suspect those really don't improve much, but rather keep breaking things for more people. This way, those lots of people who posted on this thread could test those and report if they get actual improvement, or whether there are some regressions from reverting the patches, or whether it changes nothing for them.

        On a positive note, after several days of downloading and uploading via FTP, the panics seem to be gone for good. Pheeeeew.

          Many thanks to Jimp for finally removing the rest of the problematic patches! FTP is finally working again :)

            Awesome! Do you know which snapshot this takes/took effect in? I'd like to test it out. Thanks!

                      Is this an issue for WAN > LAN > FTP ? I did some editing on my rules table and now I cannot get it to work.. I even reverted back to my original settings.

                      I posted a comment in url below hoping for a reply but I also found this which caught my attention…

                      thanks!

                        This thread is NOT for debugging your firewall/server misconfiguration problem, please do not cross-port here.

                        Back to the topic: no problems after 2 days of testing.
